Shi Lang and Hou Bing stood at the coast of the Western Continent sensing the aura of death lingering in the void. The young man asked, "Can you tell me why the world is dying?"
Hou Bing nodded with a solemn expression on her face and said, "The world is based on Dao. All the life comes from Dao, and goes back in it as well. Supreme Zen wants to replace the Dao, he wants to ascend into a being that is comparable to Dao. Every cultivator challenges the limits set upon them from the moment, they are born. They compete with themselves and chase the Dao but they never try to replace it.
Zen is corrupting the mind of the people around him. The corruption is causing the Dao to weaken here and thus without the support of the great Dao, everything is gradually dying. Be it humans, or be it the nature."
Shi Lang nodded and asked, "Why not stop him before all this turns bad?"
